Corey Wagehoft is a Principal Architect with 14 years of experience designing and operating cloud-native platforms, currently driving Kubernetes strategy and shared services at Relativity from Denver. He blends hands-on DevOps engineering—expertise in Kubernetes, Go, Azure, AWS, Terraform and CI/CD—with team leadership and architecture practice-building to reduce lead time and improve resilience at scale. His contributions span both front-end integrations (notably extending the popular roots/sage WordPress starter) and backend/operator work (enhancing the OpenSearch Kubernetes Operator’s configurability and testability). Known for translating infrastructure best practices into reusable code frameworks, he regularly partners across functions to make containerization and platform tooling practical for engineering teams. Core to his approach is fostering communities of practice and pragmatic automation that turn platform investments into measurable developer velocity.
